The British Isles Interest Group promotes and encourages interest in family history,
particularly relating to ancestry in England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, the Channel
Islands, and the Isle of Man. We educate and encourage others in British Isles
family history through research assistance, a variety of resources and a community
in order to facilitate the acquisition and exchange of family history research
information.
